Bukayo Saka missed a penalty in the Euro 2020 final.

The 19-year old missed a spot-kick in England’s penalty shootout defeat to Italy.

He along with Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford were unable to score from the spot and were subjected to vile racism on various social media platforms.

Saka was a regular for Mikel Arteta last season and made his debut for England on October 2020.

He went on to feature in four games under Southgate at the European Championship.

Mikel Arteta has personally been in contact with the player who received a lot of love and support from world football.

Arteta said: ‘I have [spoken to him], we all have, he’s been down but the support the love and admiration from everyone in world football I think is the biggest trophy that he can have.

‘He had an incredible season he was the best player in our club for the whole season, he played for England, he earned the place to play right there at 19 year-old.

‘What else do you want? Yes, the cup but you cannot have everything in this football.’
